In raised beds, your square footage is so limited, you lose a lot if you try to grow in a spacious orderly fashion.

The more compact, chaotic style of this better suits my own wild jungle of a backyard. There's also a smaller reference section with advice for growing in different types of challenging climates, and finding a balance between growing what is easy in your climate, and growing a wider variety with a little more w I really appreciated this intensive method of gardening in raised beds.

I actually have a "long overdue notice" on this book from the library, so I better take it back today.

Jan 18, Jennifer rated it it was amazing. My brother sent me this book, after a visit to his house last month when he actually went to his garden to pick vegetables to eat for dinner. I was impressed, and so now he has me fired up to get a bed ready for the spring. I'm planning to order my seeds this weekend and have already got my grow lights rigged in my basement.

Whether I'll actually have success is another story, but I'm going to try. Apr 13, Ellen Bell rated it really liked it Shelves: I've been growing vegetables with some success for over 40 years but have recently moved to Florida with its non-fertile, quick-draining sand, baking sun, and mega-insects. We also have a "normal size" lot so I expected my crops would be limited to a couple of tomatoes and peppers. I was more than pleased at the variety and health of the gardens we have experienced using the techniques in this book. I'm inspired to double the size of my garden this year.

One person found this helpful. This book is not worth the money wanted.

The same ideas, just better, are in the Square-Foot Gardening series of bks. I should have got this out of the library first but no library had it around me. I guess it would be ok if you're really just starting out reading about this type of gardening. I purchased this book to replace a copy that I purchased earlier and "loaned" to someone. The author's method is highly practical and straightforward.

I would have liked the author to consider and explain other options and let me make some choices. He seems to be a strong advocate mainly for his chosen techniques. Can't really see difference between cubed foot gardening and square foot gardening. This is a great book and I would have given it a 5 if the author had stressed the benefits of organic gardening, rather than recommending standard chemical fertilizers.

The author shows you how to get started with gardening and clearly demonstrates how to build raised beds using wood 2x12's and others sizes. He also offers great coverage of each of the major vegetables that he recommends that you grow. This part contains some particularly good material.

Cubed Foot Gardening

There are many practical and original techniques in this book. Although this is not necessarily a beginner's book, I would recommend this book to a beginner. The only problem I had was his reliance on chemical fertilizers. Many beginners might find it easier at first to use standard chemical fertilizers, as recommended by the author. However, today many gardeners are finding their way to organics to avoid the industrial wastes sometimes found in the standard chemical fertilizers.

I get the feeling that the author writes with your best interests at heart. He appears to be a successful gardener with much practical experience.

Cubed Foot Gardening: Growing Vegetables in Raised, Intensive Beds

His writing is very clear and at times quite humorous. There are plenty of pictures and diagrams to keep the book interesting. I use raised bed gardening, but use concrete blocks and take an organic approach. Although the materials are different, the methodology is very similar. I highly recommend this book to any one getting started, or anyone who wants to build raised bed gardens using wood looks better than concrete blocks, but deteriortes more quickly.
